About Us

Valley Psychological Associates is a psychotherapy practice associated with Valley Neuropsychology Group – a professional assessment practice devoted to understanding cognitive problems in all their complexity.  Together, we have been serving the Lehigh Valley for over 30 years.  We have the experience and training to work with a variety of problems, but our treatment focus is on working with individual adults and couples suffering from a variety of concerns.  Although treatment styles and approaches are unique to each clinician, we are united by our belief in the intrinsic value and inherent worth of each person we treat.

Fees and Insurance Information

You may choose to pay for treatment out-of-pocket or use your insurance.  We accept several insurance plans.  Each clinician varies with respect to the type of insurance accepted, and not every clinician accepts insurance.  In general, we are considered "in-network" with the following types of insurance:     

• Highmark
• Blue Cross Blue Shield (multiple plans)
• Capital Blue
• Medicare 

If you have one of the above types of insurance and would like to use your insurance to assist in payment for our services, please contact your insurance company about your benefits prior to your appointment. If you do not have one of the above types of insurance, we may be considered an "out-of-network" provider.  Your insurance plan may include benefits for out-of-network providers, and we would be happy to assist you in using your insurance for our services should this be the case.  Please remember that you are ultimately responsible for payment for any services not covered by your insurance company.
